View this post on Hive: Meet 12 Steem Superheroes, The Brave Men and Women Powering Up Bigtime
Sun Yuchen is a liar, thief, charlatan, and all around cunt. But I don't need to tell you that. Find me at Hive, where we are glad to be rid of him and all of his fake followers, sockpuppets, and thieves.
Great list, pfunk! Thanks to you and the people on this list and the developer team and all the great members of the steemit community, we just bumped The DAO out of 5th place in total market cap! I can't believe the price of steem being over $1.50, what a fast and strong rise in value!

Great way to recognize the community! I went from 6k from pre-4th rewards to almost 12k after a handful of STEEM purchases and power ups. Very glad I did since I bought the steem a few days ago! :)

Seeing your post i feel also a super steemit hero with my 5921 SP!! haha . Just one thing. I know that steem power is your influece power. the most you have the most you can reward and get rewarded by voting and curating content BUT, this SP has an estimated value.
Can you withdrawal this SP?
How long would it take?
Is 5900 SP 5900 steems?
Could you give me some reasons why people should hold it?
Thanks!

I would add the sidekicks too, the ones who invest their time in creating meaningful content. In the current state, they are not always visible.
I myself bought on the first day I join, 998 steem power with my saving. This is amazing to see steem grow so fast, I really hope steem take off and content grows in quality. This is where steem will be judged!
Steem it!

This is one of the things I'll be studying as I look at the strategic, game-theoretic aspects of Steem. I'm a little worried that nobody is noticing the fact that these people just purchased influence for themselves. Their vote counts several orders of magnitude more than mine because they've spent money on empowering themselves.
On the other hand, the fact that they've also just locked away all that money is extremely encouraging, because it means they'll have reason to stick around and spend their newly-purchased influence on good content instead of bad. But they could just as well spend their influence on themselves, their friends, their political agendas...

I definitely sympathize with your concerns, and I have had the same concerns since I realized what Steemit was and how it worked a few months ago.
With that said, you can become a Steemit Superhero and empower yourself by making valuable posts.

Exactly! And the bigger worry is that a small number of wealthy individuals could purchase a large amount of SP and completely dominate the conversation on here. Somebody like, say, Rupert Murdoch. How do we measure the ability of the community to resist domination by economic elites? It looks worryingly like a pay-to-play system.

true. we'll see. greed is natural. we know that and we can include it in our algorithm of steemit or the model so to say. or we don't and pay the price. we all will, you know? if steemit falls steem falls and those investment are null. so in a way we all want it to succed but it probably won't if corporations dominate the discussion...

Down later you mention that greed is natural. True! Maybe game theory can teach us how to optimize against greed.
